Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo is signed through the 2013 season, and despite the fact he's thrown an NFL-high 13 interceptions this season, the team's front office is completely behind him.

Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones told NFL.com that Romo's uncharacteristic inefficiency is "not the problem" with the team, and expects the quarterback can still "thrive" in getting them back on track toward the playoffs.

Jones cites Romo's resilience in Week 8's tough 29-24 home loss to the New York Giants, even though the Cowboys couldn't finish a great comeback from a 23-0 deficit. Romo threw four interceptions in the game, but Jones notes without him, the Cowboys wouldn't have had such a chance to win late.

“We have a lot of confidence in Tony,” Jones said. “That game is a perfect example. There (are) a lot of quarterbacks that would’ve had a hard time rallying from that type of adversity. Gotta give him a lot of credit."

Romo is 32, but it's easy to forget he's just halfway through his seventh season as a starter. Jones isn't worried about a potential regression, and that Romo's best is yet to come.

"I think he’s going to get better," Jones said. "There (are) a lot of quarterbacks that it doesn't happen right away for them in terms of winning championships and that type of thing."

If Dallas (3-4) falls short of the playoffs, it's likely Jones and his father, Cowboys owner/general manager Jerry Jones, will need to make a big decision about the team's near future after the season. In that scenario, it looks like Romo would be in those plans, but his head coach and offensive play-caller, Jason Garrett, would not.
